Lets say the game costs 20€, and I will claim that you get easily 80hours of playing. 25cents per hour, that's what playing will cost you. Can you deal with that cost?

If you like survival type of game then this would hook you. There is strong elements of base building and harvesting resources. Some of resource harvesting is manual labor (farming+ breeding) but mostly you just gather& kill everything you can get you hands on while exploring the world.
Building can be off putting. For me it caused a 1 year hiatus after initially buying the game but once I got the knack for it, everything has been going great and I now have over 300hours ingame.

I have played the game "through" before mistlands and just love the progression starting from scratch.
